  10. Oops, he spells it Fassbender, not Fassbinder. I'm thinking of Rainer Werner. 1:45 PM Jun 2nd via web
  11. As well as Fassbinder, Prometheus has another brilliant actor from an Andrea Arnold flick: Kate 'Red Road' Dickie. But she's so underused. 1:41 PM Jun 2nd via web
  12. But yes, Fassbinder is superb. What can't he do? 1:35 PM Jun 2nd via web
  13. It's actually hard to do a spoiler for Prometheus because, er, (spoiler!) there's not much more to it than the trailer. 1:33 PM Jun 2nd via web
  14. Also: Guy Pearce has that unconvincing Old Man make-up only used when actor also appears as a younger version. Next film, then? 1:32 PM Jun 2nd via web
  15. Saw #Prometheus. Doesn't quite earn the right to be a 2hr trailer for the NEXT film, but the visuals are stunning. Love Fassbinder's hair. 1:29 PM Jun 2nd via web
  16. @TimeOutFilm please can you update your film listings to distinguish 2D from 3D screenings? Ta. 8:55 AM Jun 2nd via web
